Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 F. Heat the butter or oil in a "stove to the oven"
baking dish. Put in the pork chops fat edge down, to render some of the fat
as a supplement to what's in the pan. Then sear the chops on both sides.
Remove them briefly to a plate and pour off the fat into a saucepan.
Layer into the baking dish, first the onions and then the sweet potatoes
(use a processor to get the thinnest slices). Lay the chops on top of the
vegetables.
Now blend the flour into the fat in the saucepan, adding more butter or oil
if needed. Whisk in the warm milk and add the mustard, thyme, salt, and
pepper. Cook, stirring, for 2 to 3 minutes, until the sauce thickens. Pour
over the chops. Cover and bake for 1 hour, then strew the zucchini slices
over the pork. Sprinkle with the mozzarella and bake, uncovered, another 15
minutes. Serves 6.
